Budj Bim Cultural Landscape: Kooyang Full-Day Tour

The tour starts with a visit to the Kurtonitj Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) in the centre of the Budj Bim Cultural Landscape with historical stone kooyang (eel) traps and stone channels, stone house sites and eel smoking trees. Seevan ancient smoking tree used for smoking kooyang (eels), an area of lava flow featuring two weirs, and a dam associated with trapping and holding kooyang. After Kurtonitj visits Lake Gorrie where you will enjoy morning tea before a short guided walk.

See a well-preserved drystone wall sheep wash, built by Gunditjmara people and used by early pastoralists. Constructed in the mid-1800s, the dry stone walls demonstrate a high level of craftsmanship and skill in their construction and have been deemed of archaeological significance by the State of Victoria. There are also large numbers of Karrayn (grey kangaroo) living here.

After Lake Gorrie, return to the Tae Rak Aquaculture Centre & Café for lunch. After lunch, you will enjoy a Guided Cultural Walk of Tae Rak (Lake Condah) and the surrounding wetlands. Your guide will take you to the southern and eastern sides of the lake for a cultural talk and a look at the extensive range of stone aquaculture sites, stone walls, birdlife and other wildlife.

The walking tour finishes back at the Tae Rak Aquaculture Centre & Cafe at approx 4 pm, from where we transfer you back to Heywood.
